Big Pharma Shaking as Trump Appoints Top Vaccine Truth Advocate

in #news8 years ago

Donald Trump has reportedly chosen Robert Kennedy Jr. to lead the Commission on Vaccine Safety, and the mainstream media is working overtime to obstruct the facts of this important story.   

Kennedy announced the position after he met with Trump on Tuesday, and as a result, mainstream media outlets began referring to Kennedy as “an environmental activist and skeptic of vaccines” when reporting the story.   

As previously reported, Kennedy has been a vocal critic of the Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) vaccine. He is now being ridiculed by the media for claiming that there is a link between autism and the preservative Thiomersal, which is present in the MMR vaccine.   

“What happened was, the vaccine schedule was increased. We went from receiving about 10 vaccines in our generation, to these kids receive 24 vaccines, and they all have this Thiomersal in them—this mercuryand nobody bothered to do an analysis of what the cumulative impact of all of that mercury was doing to kids,” Kennedy said during an appearance on MSNBC in 2012. “As it turns out, we are injecting our children with 400 times the amount of mercury that the FDA or the EPA considers safe.”    

While Kennedy is criticizing the current standards, he is also calling for more analysis, more scientific research, and more accountability from vaccine manufacturers.    

One thing you have to understand about these manufacturers is that in the United States, the pharmaceutical complex was able to successfully lobby outward government to make sure that they cannot be held accountable to the law. Currently, parents cannot sue vaccine manufacturers if those manufacturers creates a defective or destructive vaccine that harms their children.   

The “vaccine market” is a $24 BILLION industry and experts are saying it will grow to be worth over $60 billion by 2020. Yet, the revenue continues to grow even though the manufacturers have been caught falsifying data and lying to the public, purely for profit.    

Merck, the pharmaceutical giant that produces the MMR vaccine has faced multiple allegations of misconduct coming from at least three whistleblowers, two of whom were former Merck scientists and one of whom was a scientist for the Centers for Disease Control. The accusations included failing to disclose the ineffectiveness of certain vaccines, using improper testing techniques and manipulating test results.    

Yet, because of the current law, companies like Merck cannot be held accountable for their actions. It is not just the manufacturers though, it’s also the CDC, which has become a revolving door between big pharma executives and government officials.    

The appointment of Robert Kennedy as the chair of the Commission on Vaccine Safety brings some hope that all of the revelations from whistleblowers like William Thompson and Andrew Wakefield might actually stand a chance of launching an investigation into vaccine manufacturers, and it might give the public the right to hold them accountable for their actions.    

What the mainstream media is really saying in their reporting on this topic is, “How dare Donald Trump not elect another Big Pharma executive to this government position,” which is absurd.

Andrew Wakefield cherry-picked his data, fudged his data, and otherwise outright LIED so that he could sell his own, different set of MMR vaccines. The man is a liar and a fraud and he had his medical licence revoked for his dickbaggery.

Thiomersal hasn't been in vaccine vials since the early 90's when all this bullshit started. Since then, there has been more incidences of ASD and other developmental disorders.

Maybe someone should do a study about the rise of high-fructose corn syrup in everything and the simultaneous rise of developmental disorders in children. I bet that would be educational.

Oh, but it wouldn't be profitable. The corn lobby has lots of government money to bribe... er... convince people with. The vaccine industry isn't one, so they can't really convince anyone.

Meanwhile, "Big Pharma" doesn't care if you vaccinate or not. They get way more money out of palliative care than they ever did out of preventions or cures.

Anyone who objects to what I've put down here should go tour a pre-50's graveyard sometime. They have what's called "Babyland", where they buried all the little kids that died from now-preventable diseases like measles, mumps, whooping cough, polio...

And anyone who thinks that having a kid who has ASD is worse than having a kid who DIED? Just... fuck off. Don't even try to talk to me. I won't listen.

You go ahead and vaccinate your kids all you want dude...

Andrew Wakefield is not the source of people's concerns. Glaxo Smith Kline has also fudged data. To not be concerned about the conflict of interest involved is very strange to me. The extreme reaction is to avoid all vaccinations and say that all vaccines are bad but there are many people, like myself, who don't buy into either black-or-white argument. All vaccines are bad and have adverse effects, or all vaccines are good and those "anti-vaxxers" don't have legitimate concerns. Both of these arguments are delusional.

This is Bobby Kennedy's position on vaccines, in an interview with Science Mag

Q: Rates of childhood infectious diseases have plummeted over the past half-century or so. Are you out to return us to the dark ages?

A: I am for vaccines. I have been tracking mercury in fish for 30 years and nobody has called me antifish. I am pro-vaccine. I had all my kids vaccinated. I think vaccines save lives. But we are also seeing an explosion in neurodevelopmental disorders and we ought to be able to do a cost-benefit analysis and see what’s causing them. We ought to have robust, transparent science and an independent regulatory agency. Nobody is trying to get rid of vaccines here. I just want safe vaccines.

Hallelujah! Trump lived up to his word! He likely won the election because he promised us that he would do something about the horrendous situation with unsafe vaccines. A survey showed that 1/3rd of his voters believe that vaccines cause autism. The families of the vaccine injured (thousands upon thousands of them) and the people who don't want forced vaccination like happened in California -- all voted for him no matter their previous political affiliations or whether they even like him. Trump was the only one who dared to speak against the pharmaceutical giants, who are the #1 Lobbyists in Congress.
I had doubts that he would deliver. But I held out hope. And now he has shown himself true to his word. America has hope for a brighter future now for its children.

This is vitally important for me as a Canadian too, and every other citizen of the world,
because the utterly corrupt Centers for Disease Control in the USA set the world-wide standards for the vaccine schedule. Trump needs to shut them down -- or put completely new people in charge at the CDC.

This was long over due. Well done Trump on this one.

Strange Trump would pick this little weasel to head such an important health issue but maybe the truth about vaccines and their dangers sound better coming out of a Democrats mouth than a Republicans.

I don't know much about him. Is he a weasel? He weighed in @ standing rock. At least he is some kind of counter-balance to 'science' bias from big pharma funding. I take that as a good thing.

He did nothing but a photo op at the camp. At least, Jill Stein and Shailene Woodley went out and protested with the people.
